Answer:

The correct answer will be option C.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are the single-celled organisms of domain bacteria and archaea  which lacks a nucleus and membrane-bound organelle while eukaryotic cells are the organisms which contains a well defined nucleus and other membrane bound organelles.

The fundamental difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is the presence of DNA(genetic material) in a membrane-bound organelle called nucleus which is absent in prokaryotes where genetic material is stored in an area called nucleoid which is not surrounded by the nuclear membrane.

The compartmentalisation of DNA confers stability to the cell as genetic material is protected from the external bodies and injuries.

Thus, option C is the correct answer.

<span>The chemical elements</span><span> can be broadly divided into </span>metals<span>, </span>metalloids<span> and </span>nonmetals<span> according to their shared </span>physical<span> and </span>chemical properties<span>.

Typical nonmetals have a dull, coloured or colourless appearance; are </span>brittle<span> when solid; are poor conductors of heat and electricity; and have acidic oxides. Most or some elements in each category share a range of other properties; a few elements have properties that are either anomalous given their category, or otherwise extraordinary.</span>
